Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gufw
I installed Gufw. After the installation I clicked on the new installed menu-item (System -> Preferences). I was not able to enable the firewall nor to make any of the settings (all grey). Then I opened the terminal- console and entered gufw. A dialog appeared asking for the sudo password. Then I was able to set up the firewall. I closed the terminal. I was able to enter Gufw (System -> Preferences) and to disable the firewall. After disableing the firewall all settings are greyed out again and I have to start gufw by means of the terminal again. Why isn't the sudo-popup-dialog not invoked when you start gufw via System-Preferences? And why can one disable the firewall without a password? ** Affects: gui-ufw (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Can't enable firewall by means of Gufw via the System->Preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/392113 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
